About the Game

You are the Champion of Syr - an ancient champion awoken in times of great danger. Now, you have been awoken in the kingdoms most desperate hour - the kingdom overrun by an ancient enemy, the king and head of your order besieged in their own city. Do you have what it takes to fight back the night?

MONSTERS LURK IN THE DARK
Fight a variety of creatures infesting the kingdom - each with their own unique methods of attack, and ties to the darkness. Can you drive these beasts back to the realm they call home?

YOU MUST RESTORE THE LIGHT
Rid an area of the infesting darkness by lighting and protecting beacons - be wary, however, as once a beacon strarts to light it will draw in those who would see it snuffed out.

ENHANCE YOUR POWER
Use your experience to power up certain aspects of your power - either through devotion to the God of Fire, Syr - or by imbuing yourself with the powers of the beasts you slay. Will you embrace the darkness?

EXPLORE THE KINGDOM
Navigate levels through a charming overworld system - travelling between levels, finding new friends, allies - and foes - along the way.

DISCOVER THE TRUTH
Not all is as it seems with this invasion - can you discover what the church is hiding? Are these creatures of the night exactly as they appear, or are they something more?
